...uses "Tutorial School" notes and he who does not. "The former," he says, "learns stick-to-it-ness, the latter concentration, both of which are valuable." This would leave one to think that one course was as productive of good as another. This is rather deceptive. Is, say a three-day concentration period, able to compare in value with a four month stick-to-it period? Or is concentration a desirable so rare that a little of it will off-set a lot of the baser stuff of persistent application? The foreshortening of an obligation of four months...

...time of the Westminster game on Monday Coach Claflin's men will have had a four-day lay-off. Such a prolonged absence from practice is liable to have a bad effect on the team. The University sextet entered last Tuesday's contest against the B.A.A. after a three-day lay-off and at least two of the Crimson players appeared to be very sluggish at first. It is certain that the long rest did not help the playing and Coach Claflin does not wish to have another such lay-off unless it cannot possibly be avoided...
